ISE ?00I) SEED OATS THIS fAli Raleigh. August 15. ? It will soon be time to think of planting the oat crop and- many farmers plant oats In cot ton at the last cultivation. In planning for the crop this fall. Dr. R. Y. Win ters, plant breeder for the State Col lege and Department of Agriculture, urges North Carolina growers . to think more about tyielr own home grown seed. Last year he found seed oats that had been brought In from New YorK and other distant states, while the results of tests made over many years show that home grown seed from selected plants have al ways yielded higher returns than ' these Imported seed. For Instance, Dr. Winters gives the ' case of oats grown by the Edgecombe Seed Breeders' Association which yielded 43 bushels to the acre, as com pared with a yield of 30 bushels to the acre secured from commercial seed. The Edgecombe growers, of course, select their own seed and keep them pure. At Statesvllle, on the farm of J. W. Watts, tests made In cooperation with Dr. W'nters showed that the com mercial seed yielded about 50 bush els per acre while plants from a. se lected strain bought from a neigh boring farmer who bred Jjls oats, gave a yield of 67 bushels per acre. On the Piedmont Branch Station Farm near Statesvllle; Dr. Winters completed a test this year 1ft which he secured a yield of 45.$ bushels per acre from "his own Belected strain ot Appier oats grown on tEe farm, as compared with only 28.2 bushels per acre from Seed secured '-from 'a .com mercial source. Dr. Winters states that such differences In yield as these ere well worth considering and re commends that North Carolina 'grow ers pay more attention to their oat seed this fall, using selected home grown seed It possible. m SIGN CONTRACTS DCHING WEEK Raleigh, .Afcg. <21.?
